Which television show would you never miss growing up?
There were probably three shows I would never miss, some by choice and some by force. My mother would never let me miss "60 Minutes" or "MacNeil/Lehrer." My personal tastes were more along the lines of "Diff'rent Strokes" and "Night Rider."

BlackBerry or iPhone?
BlackBerry. It's just more functional for every day.
